There is no reason for the 50 or so of you idiots to constantly bash the Dandy One. You obviously read his site, as does every LSU fan out there. He has been doing this for years, and you didn't complain until you had a voice on this board...a weak one at that. Sure, he will misspell a player's name every other week or so, but what is the obsession with bashing him so much?

Next week you will wonder why Dandy Don reported that Kenny Bell was a commitment only 5 days before he actually pulled the trigger.

Seriously, why do you folks constantly bash him on this board? He writes more about LSU every day than you could in a week. He is dedicated and gives us a report, even here in the eastern time zone, in the early A.M.

Why must you complain about him so often?

b- still read it every day
4- come here to complain about it

Falling for pranks like hot news on a basketball recruit named "Cli Torris, 6" 9' forward" from a 'e-mail' make him a target."Rhatphuc Hobley" was another gem. His weekly predictions from time to time include ties.

No need to 'bash' I agree,but no need to burst into tears when someone laughs at him,either.

Because he sucks.

And just because he's 'dedicated', it doesn't mean he gets a free pass on the idiocy he spits out.

And I stopped looking at his site a couple of years ago, mostly because I got sick of all the typos and mistakes.

Why do people like you get so bent because others don't like the site?

If YOU think it's so great...fine, send him your money and be happy with what you get.

But, since this IS a message board, don't be confused when people do not share the same opinion as you.

"Bash" is a little harsh of a word. I think most people like Dandy Don and appreciate the service he provides, but if you're putting stuff out on the web, you can expect criticism.

Hell, people criticize tons of free web sites from this site to Google to lsusports.net.

You wish it was only every other week.

You can routinely find at least 5 glaring mistakes in most of his updates. He gets a freaking press pass for christ's sake. At least double check your posts ONCE before you submit it

Because there is simply no supportable reason to say anything negative about him. Your post highlights what's wrong with the situation. You're an oxygen thief of the highest order. Pretty much a waste of a sperm.

LOL...tools laugh at DD, yet praise to high hell, the pseudo experts on this board? All they do is regurgitate what they hear, from other sites. Hell, I have more contacts than they.

Its because there are a bunch of punk-arse 20something college students (or wannabes) who haven't a clue about life. They think they're so damn clever because they have rss readers, an account at both fark and digg and a sense of self-importance because they *gasp* post on TD.com. They are Teh L33T hax0rs! Its fun to laugh at someone from the older generation who 'aint too good' at computers.

Grow up. You got absolutely no reason to visit dd.com if you don't like him so just shut up. Can't you find something better to do like post pictures of girls you will never ever meet on the OT WYHI threads or chase the OT girls with your eDicks?

No, it has nothing to do with that...

I find it amusing that the people that always run to DD's defense are the 50-somethings that think the 20-somethings are bashing him because he's older.

Maybe some do...I don't know.

I can only give you my reasons. I also find it interesting that I have been called many names in this thread by you 50-somethings, and I never once said anything negative about the people that like his site.

Interesting.

Yes, I think DD's site sucks. Maybe I should have made that more clear than I originally did. I'm sure Don is a great man, and he's obviously a great Tiger. I never impugned his loyalties...

So before telling ME to grow up...maybe you should heed your own advice.

Dandy can handle those idiots feeble attacks--better for them to attack Dandy than small animals.

At least they might not feel the urge to torture their animals or small children as much--immature college geeks, don't you love'm.

So, your "heros' who post here on the recruiting board are superior? Get real. These tools just regirtitate information they hear, like you and I. I haven't seen any of these posers with an accuracy rate better than DD.

frick dandy don that site is awful and I haven't read it in years

he puts out a product and begs for donations so therefore he opens himself up to criticism.

This issue would probably die if Donknights wouldn't freak out anytime someone says the site sucks

Please quit generalizing me...

I have no 'hero's' on here.

Check the Recruiting Board...I rarely post there. I get my information from the national recruiting services. And that has served me well so far.
